Data protection information 

(Version: 1.6 (iOS) – 11.11.2021) 

1. AUTHADA Identification Service

In connection with identification, AUTHADA GmbH collects the necessary personal data of the person to be identified (user) from the identity card (nPA) or electronic residence permit (eAT) for its clients (e.g. financial service providers). The identification is carried out in accordance with § 18 Identity Card Act (PAuswG) and is carried out via a mobile and NFC-capable end device using the AUTHADA App. This service is provided by AUTHADA GmbH as a service provider within the meaning of § 2 para. 3 PAuswG for its clients, so that they can meet legal requirements, e.g. from the Money Laundering Act, or to increase the security of the user’s identity. AUTHADA GmbH carries out these activities as a processor in accordance with Art. 28 ff GDPR and the instructions of its clients. Furthermore, AUTHADA GmbH offers the user the possibility of retrieving the data stored on the electronic identity card and displaying it on the mobile device (self-disclosure). 

2. Personal data

Personal data from the ID chip is transferred exclusively for the purpose of electronic proof of identity to the extent of the authorization granted, after the user has given his consent by entering his ID PIN. In the case of self-disclosure, the data is displayed on the mobile device but not stored there. Further processing is not carried out. 

3. Security

AUTHADA GmbH uses state-of-the-art technical and organizational security measures to protect the identification service and the personal data processed therein against incidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. For example, all communication channels between the identification chip and the client of AUTHADA GmbH are protected with state-of-the-art Transport Layer Security (TLS) mechanisms. Furthermore, the security measures used are continuously monitored and improved in accordance with technological developments. 

4. Logging data

The AUTHADA App uses the analysis tool Matomo to detect errors at an early stage and to continuously improve the App. In addition, the tool supports the tracking of user behavior in the App by creating anonymous usage reports. This data is stored on the server of AUTHADA GmbH in Germany. The analysis tool is configured in such a way that only data regarding the use of the AUTHADA App, the used end device and its location are collected. The data is anonymized (IP address) in such a way that no conclusion can be drawn about a person. After six months this data is automatically deleted. 

The user has the possibility to switch off the analysis procedure via an opt-out. 

5. Identification process

The user of the AUTHADA Identification Service uses a compatible mobile device (e.g. his smartphone or tablet) to read the identification document (nPA/eAT) with the help of the NFC interface. The identification process with the corresponding steps and the associated data processing works as follows: 

On the website of the client of AUTHADA GmbH, the user is made aware of the option of identification by AUTHADA GmbH. 

The user starts the identification process. Within the framework of this process, both the PIN of the identity card (nPA/eAT) and the data of the identity card (nPA/eAT) are collected via NFC function. 

The user authorizes the collection of the data for transmission to the client of AUTHADA GmbH and for the stated purpose. 

As soon as the data has been extracted and sent, the user is shown a TAN number, which he must enter in a designated field on the client’s website. 

The identification is now complete. The extracted data will be forwarded directly to the client of AUTHADA GmbH. 

All data collected by AUTHADA is used exclusively to identify the user, as well as to check the proper processing of the data. During each identification process, the user authorizes the data, which will be transmitted to the client. A processing of the user’s personal data beyond the scope of the legally permitted activities does not take place.
